Scene 1:
At Rise: JIRI is standing alone in the middle of the stage, with the curtains closed. School scene should be set up in the background. When she sits down the curtains open. 790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL8idtneNll
JIRI
Jiri’s monologue part 1. Hiya, my is Jiri and I’m eleven years old. Sometimes I’m extremely happy, but other times I’m super sad, and I don’t really know why… It’s just how I am. I go to elementary school, even though I really don’t want to. 790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHBgmXJ57Em
I have a big brother, Ajwaku. He is the one that takes care of me. He’s always been super weird. He was born with purple eyes.
(She points to her eyes.)
And the like flippy part of his hair is like white, but the rest of it is like black.
(She tries to explain using hand motions.)
He could have dyed it over I guess, but he told me that if he dyed his hair he wouldn’t feel like himself anymore. I like that theory, so I accept it. 790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAhKhhh2wYT
Oh! I forgot to say how or parents are like NEVER HOME! They’re always on business trips, well I guess they’re not “business trips” because they travel around the world and stuff. When they come home they are super nice to me, but I don’t think they like AJ, my brother, very much. I don’t know why people don’t like him, so DON’T BE MEAN TO MY BROTHER!790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5XPnBfQEYV
He’s had like one friends his whole life and that’s it. Until, his sophomore year in high school. Then he got this friend named Raine Kuro, and she’s the only person who might be weirder than he is. I DON’T LIKE HER! But, hey, that’s where my big brother’s story really starts, on the day they really met for the first time.
(She sits down on the edge of the stage.)790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8eGi8u5mfi
RAINE
(RAINE enters on the staircase of her school. She is going up them. Near the middle she slips back.)790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0xBtZEgljX
AJWAKU
(He enters from the side of the hallway. He notices RAINE falling down the stairs.)
Oh crap!
(He runs and manages to stop her fall, but he falls too. He stands up before she does, and holds his hand out for her.)790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZlStCZHiwf
RAINE
(She doesn’t take his hand. She stands up on her own.)790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgneBnC33cb
AJWAKU
(He scratches his head.)
Not so good at flying are you?790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc4Gj973phY
RAINE
(She laughs awkwardly.)
No, definitely not my strong suit. 790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXUvaDLmVpp
JIRI
(She throws her hands up.)
Oh! I forgot to mention that Raine is blind! Oops… So when she fell she probably wasn’t just being stupid. What I don’t get is that she never carries a walking stick or anything, like isn’t that what you're supposed you’re blind?
(She looks backwards.)
Oh, um… okay, back to the story… 790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7F5gmWkesj
AJWAKU
That’s okay, I’m Ajwaku. 790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtCus65jEPM
RAINE
Thanks for helping me… Kinda… Stairs are always a pain. 790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIWPVri7DAo
AJWAKU
I… Uh… Your name is… 790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiNUdKZyZAq
RAINE
(She giggles.)
It’s Raine.
AJWAKU
Oh-790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjpmYDFYxV8
KABESE
(She cuts him off as she enters running and stomping.)
DON’T TOUCH HER!!!
(She punches him.)790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHPssP3UL03
AJWAKU
(He holds his cheek.)
Ouchie. 790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgZfJL82uOR
KABESE
Tssk. 790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Jq8YyTscC
JIRI
(She points.)
That’s Kabese. If anyone in the whole wide world were to know Raine Kuro, it would probably be Kabese.
(She jumps up.)
She’s rude and tough! And was way too dense to notice any sort of social barrier between the blind teenager and herself. Under her angry exterior, she actually did care a lot about Raine. 790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡljnF1qYBmE
KABESE
God, what do you think you’re doing, bonehead?!790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuNHBicL4fb
AJWAKU
I-I-I-790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyC195YGUOE
SUNAKU
(He enters with his hands in his pockets.)
Wow AJ, why do all the hot girls hit on you- literally?
(He laughs at his own joke.)790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvDffsXbcuS
KABESE
I’d be happy to accommodate you too. 790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡol56CtUJes
SUNAKU
(He winks.)
Anytime. 790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ39Nzbg70z4
KABESE
Gross! Let’s get out of here Raine!
(She takes RAINE’S arm and helps her up the first few stairs.) 790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdfxZp3UjUg
AJWAKU
(He stares down at his feet and mumbles.)
I could have helped her, you know? 790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCcTPm5YdTL
KABESE
(She turns.)
Well, too bad you’ll never get the chance, lover boy!790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP1b6WZkFPq
SUNAKU
(He rushes up the stairs to RAINE’S side.)
So, what class are you girls in anyways? First day of school and all, right? I’m in 2C.790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEfpr3N1ERo
KABESE
WHAT?! That’s what I’m in! Geez, you’re gonna be there. Now I really never wanna go to class!
(She lets go of RAINE, whom she had been dragging.)790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBba93mQNyI
RAINE
(She screams.)790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNgdyXfPgeQ
AJWAKU
(He stops her before she falls.)790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUdi4vIC5xK
RAINE
Ugh… thanks again Ajwaku. I’m actually the worst. 790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfgBL8Ysrap
AJWAKU
(He blushes.)
T-T-That’s okay.
RAINE
So, are you in that class too?790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNS1J2o8RV9
AJWAKU
Nah, I’m in 2A. 790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgGSQSaEFyM
RAINE
Darn. I’ll be alone then. 2B. We could meet up for lunch, if you want to, Ajwaku. 790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnpC5o7s6xG
KABESE
OH NO! I do not like these guys! I forbid it! Now come on! We’re going to class. Leave us alone, or you’ll wake up underwater and in half like the Titanic.
(She takes RAINE again, and they go up the stairs.)790Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi02Qnxka9v
RAINE
(She waves in no particular direction.)
Byee!
(Everyone exits.)
